Hi there.
Normally you can Mirror your Anim along the X-Axis by enable/disable this option.
But sometime’s it works and sometime’s not.

Lets take some of Mobu Tamplate Chars/Anims.
When i load Mia und drag a Motion(Run_F) into Story Mode, Mirror Animation is working.

Now i Plot the Anim to Scene, delete the orig Clip, insert current take to story, clear all animation, make it read-only (Now we should have the same situation as before), the Mirror Funktion is not working any more.
So the Orig Clip must have some additional Infos that has been plottet to death.
Can anyone give me a light whats happening here?

thxs^^ :)

Doesn`t mirroring animation work only with transfering from source data, like control rig or other character? Make sure you don`t have Ctrl Rig In turned on in Character Controls before you first plot.

Unfortunately, turning it on/off makes no difference.

I just would like to know how i can mirror a handkeyed motion/clip that i made...

Merge second character, for its input choose the first Character you want to mirror. Then go to the second Character properties and under Retargeting check Mirror Animation.

Now the second character should have mirrored animation. Plot it and do with it whatever you like.
